Shego Sinner
With over six years of tearing up the Scottish cabaret and comedy scene, Shego Sinner is Glasgow’s undisputed queen of quick wit, lethal insults, and unmatched hosting energy. Known for a sharp tongue and a heart of gold (well, mostly sharp tongue), Shego knows exactly how to read a room, roast an audience, and keep the party moving at breakneck speed. Shego is the resident powerhouse behind Gag Wednesday and Club Couture, delivering week-in, week-out hilarity, high-camp drama, and sharp-witted hosting. Her iconic status reached new heights when she warmed up a massive crowd of 60,000 opening for pop phenomenon Chappell Roan, proving no stage is too big for her signature brand of fierce comedy.
